Sabeans (sa-bç'anz). 1. Descendants of Seba. Isaiah 45:14. It should be simply "people of Seba," son of Cush. 2. In Joel 3:8 the descendants of Sheba, son of Joktan, are meant. Possibly a third tribe is spoken of in Job 1:15. The translation "Sabeans" in Ezekiel 23:42 is incorrect: read "drunkards," as in the margin and In the R. V.
